The Bouba/Kiki Effect:
Which shape would you name “kiki” and which would you name “bouba”?  Decide now, in your head…
If you said the one on the left is kiki and the one on the right is bouba, you are in the vast majority (something like 95%-98%).  Even children too young to read agree.  This “suggests that the naming of objects is not completely arbitrary.”  Cool.
